The #1 Habit Mistake That Keeps You Stuck
Manage episode 506659548 series 2880135
You want to be healthier. You want to read more. You want to meditate or eat better or finally stick to your habits. So why can’t you?
In this solo episode, Paul explains the #1 mistake most people make when trying to build new habits—and how to fix it with a simple, powerful reframe: make it so easy you can’t not do it.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
Why “doing it all” usually leads to doing nothing
The firehose analogy (and how it applies to behavior change)
How to break habits into puzzle pieces instead of full overhauls
Why small, repeatable actions beat big, unsustainable efforts
How to build momentum without relying on motivation
🎯 Listener Challenge:
Take one habit you've been struggling to build and cut it in half. Then cut it in half again. Start there.
